On January 27, 2008, Han J. Pettersson resigned as a Director and Officer of the
Corporation.
On January 27, 2008, Mr. Garr Winters accepted a position as an officer and
director of the corporation. He is the Secretary of the Corporation, and the sole
authority to issue stock on behalf of the Corporation.
Mr. Winters created his first public company, Quebec Outdoor Amusements Corporation,
in 1967 for operations at Expo 67. Has subsequently partnered in the acquisition,
operation and development of a diverse group of successful companies including
Canada's leading travel ware manufacturer and importer, Frontier Town USA (a theme

micro cap funding corporation.
In November 2007, China Good Life, LLC was formed pursuant to the Limited
Liability Company Act of the State of Nevada as a member operated company.
The members included:
• Hebei Haorizi Trade Stock Co., Ltd.
• Asia Pacific Enterprises Limited (for the benefit of Hebei Haorizi Trade
Stock Co., Ltd.
• Esprit Financial Group, Inc.
On January 7th, 2008, THE League Publishing Inc. acquired the assets of Esprit
Financial Group, Inc. in an all stock transaction valued at $57 million USD with
the total number of shares to be issued to MonArc Corporation (previously Esprit
Financial Group, Inc.) of 95 million common shares.
On January 27th, 2008, The League Publishing Inc. was renamed Good Life
China Corporation pursuant to a board resolution.
Of this total number of shares issued to MonArc, MonArc will, in turn, issue 80
million shares to Asia Pacific Enterprises, Limited, and up to 14 million shares will
be distributed as a special stock dividend to investors who held shares at the
closing bell on February 1st, 2008. The remaining shares shall be retained by
MonArc, the disposition of which shall be determined by the Company’s
management and Board of Directors.
On April 9, 2008 a new ticker symbol was issued for the Corporation, and the
Corporation began trading under the GLCC ticker symbol.
Good Life is one of most successful and fastest growing chain of Convenience Stores in
rural areas of Hebei Province, China.
The Company has enjoyed meteoric growth rates over the last 10 years, growing from a
mere 8 stores in 1999 to almost 1,600 in 2007, becoming the largest chain store network
of convenience stores serving more than 2.4 million people in the rural areas of China.
The Company expects to continue rapid expansion of its retail footprint through the next
several years, and plans to begin launching stores in large urban areas beginning in 2008.
Current plans call for the Company to expand to 4,000 franchised stores in 2008, and
reach upwards of up to 15,000 locations by the end of 2010.
In addition, the Company also plans to expand areas of operation for its franchise stores
to provide warehousing and distribution services for farm input products, as well as
providing commodity sales of crops on behalf of local farmers.
Much like the original Hudson Bay Company at the turn of the last century, farmers will
be able to borrow against farm inputs, purchase consumer goods and services for personal
consumption, and rely on Esprit / Good Life stores to sell their crops after harvest. They
will be tied to Good Life stores for a great portion of their purchases due to the multiple
service relationships that will all be interconnected.
60,000,000 15,000
40,000,000 10,000
Established to develop convenience stores in rural areas within Hebei Province, the
Company has been extremely successful. It has grown from a handful of stores to the
largest chain of convenience stores with roughly 1,600 retail outlets serving more than
2.4 million people under the Haorizi retail banner in Hebei.
The current run rate of gross retail sales generated by the chain of Franchisees is over 800
RMB, or $107 million USD.
As it does so, it will begin expanding geographically into key neighboring markets and
targeted urban centers:
Beijing (Second largest and capital city of PRC. .Population 15 million)
Tianjin (Urban area is the third largest in China, after Shanghai and Beijing.
Population: 10.4 million).
Shandong Province (Population: 92 million)
Henan Province (Population: 97 million)
Shanxi Province (Population: 32 million)
Jiangsu Province (Population: 70 million)
RETAIL STORES
From corporate stores to franchise model:
As the Company has continued to grow, it has developed expertise in logistics, and has
refocused corporate efforts to concentrate on the efficiencies generated through
advanced, web-enabled systems and on the supply side as well as the retail distribution
processes.
In 2007, the Company moved forward from a corporate owned retail store strategy to a
franchise system. All 1,600 stores have been converted to franchises, and are now
operated by franchisees. Aggressive expansion of the retail footprint will be made on this
basis.
The franchise approach works incredibly efficiently. The Company has developed
advanced logistics and efficient stock inventory, sales reporting and back end corporate
software solutions, adopting many best practices used by major retailers in the Western
world.
The chain will open nearly 600 new stores this year, and plans call for an accelerated
pace for the next five years that is staggering; reaching 4,000 locations by the end of
2008.
Retail Outlets:
A typical Haorizi store is roughly 100 sq. meters in size, and stocks a very wide selection
of products. This includes:
Each store also offers the option of becoming a retail member. Membership offers the
benefits of online ordering and payment, local delivery
Good Life has developed a multi-tier membership concept, that operates at all levels of
the supply and retail chain.
In addition to traditional retail sales, each store also features a membership option for its
customers. Members can order products online via the Company’s web-enabled e-
commerce website (www.huozhan.com ). Deliveries can be m ade to customers within a
1 kilometer trading area around each store, or retail products can be ordered for pickup at
a local franchise store.
This membership concept provides a powerful tool to cross-market products and services
well beyond the traditional offering of a convenience store. In rural areas, farmers can
order farm input supplies and products, and Good Life will be expanding into new areas
in the short-term, such as farm crop insurance, small loans etc.
The Company also utilizes Customer Relation Management (CRM) within it web-
enabled services, to provide higher levels of loyalty and monitor the effectiveness of its
customer service policies and procedures.
Franchisees have their own membership program. This provides comprehensive back-
office services, financial reporting, regular news of new products and promotional
programs, store services such as signage etc. At the wholesale level, suppliers and
manufacturers can also apply for
membership. They must meet strict
standards re: product quality, pricing,
and timely delivery of products.
Franchise Systems:
Good Life is applying proven successful retail concepts to the Chinese market, with
excellent success. It is important to remember that many of the retail concepts we take for
granted are absolutely new to many of the Provinces in China. Consumers, particularly
in rural areas, are not accustomed to barcoded products, or computerized check-outs etc.
These are revolutionary business practices.
Potential franchisees are required to meet strict eligibility prerequisites to ensure the
success of each new retail location, as well as to maintain consistent standards of
products and services across the chain.
Ongoing training upgrades provide opportunity for successful operators to advance up the
organizations management structure.
Franchisees regularly tour Company headquarters to for guidance on store operations and
merchandizing, briefing on upcoming promotions and familiarization with the ever-
expanding portfolio of products and services.
One of the most significant initiatives is its expanding line of private labeled
consumer products, providing increased margins for the Company.
Marketing and promotion are also being standardized across the retail network, providing
additional economies of scale previously non-existent in most areas served by the
Company.
BUSINESS MODEL:
The Company has evolved from Corporate owned stores to a franchise system. Based on
the in-house knowledge based that has been developed in running these stores, Good Life
has put together a complete turnkey package to offer its franchisees, as well as a fully
integrated supply chain management system.
Good Life has advanced logistics in place for its three existing warehouses, with
aggressive plans to expand along with the Company’s increasing store count.

Under Check 21, banks can capture a picture of the front and back of the check along with
the associated payment information and transmit this information electronically.
For foreign markets such as Asia and South America that have significant funds flow back
and forth from the U.S., this becomes an invaluable asset. Esprit is intent on being first to
market with as non-financial institution to offer this service.

demand for this service and we have received an overwhelming response from preliminary
discussions with Chinese banks for our service. Most Chinese banks handle significant

China, or for export related payments to international destinations.

Group to acquire 100 per cent of Canden on an all-stock basis of one million post reverse payout.
Accounting policies and procedures are listed below. The company has adopted a December 31 yearend.
Accounting Basis
We have prepared the consolidated financial statements according to generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP).
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less as
cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2007, the company had no cash or cash equivalent balances in excess
of the federally insured amounts. The Company’s policy is to invest excess funds in only well capitalized
financial institutions.
The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share." SFAS No. 128 requires the
presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS"). Basic EPS is computed by dividing income
available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the
period. Diluted EPS includes the potential dilution that could occur if options or other contracts to issue
common stock were exercised or converted.
The Company has not issued any options or warrants or similar securities since inception.
As permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-
Based Compensation--Transition and Disclosure", which amended SFAS 123 ("SFAS 123"), "Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation", the Company has elected to continue to follow the intrinsic value method
in accounting for its stock-based employee compensation arrangements as defined by Accounting
Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and related
Interpretations including "Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretations No. 44, Accounting for
Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation", and interpretation of APB No. 25. At December 31,
2007 the Company has not formed a Stock Option Plan and has not issued any options.
Dividends
The Company has adopted a policy regarding the payment of dividends. Dividends may be paid to
shareholders once all divisions are fully operational and profitable. The Board may also pay dividends to
counter any short selling or undermining of the entity. See Note 1.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are carried at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method of depreciation
over the assets’ estimated useful lives. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; major
renewals and improvements are capitalized. When items of fixed assets are sold or retired, the related cost
and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in income.
Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes is the total of the current taxes payable and the net of the change in the
deferred income taxes. Provision is made for the deferred income taxes where differences exist between the
period in which transactions affect current taxable income and the period in which they enter into the
determination of net income in the financial statements.
Advertising
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Goodwill
Goodwill is created when we acquire a business. It is calculated by deducting the fair value of the net
assets acquired from the consideration given and represents the value of factors that contribute to greater
earning power, such as a good reputation, customer loyalty or intellectual capital.
We assess goodwill of individual subsidiaries for impairment in the fourth quarter of every year, and when
circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a
going concern. The Company incurred a loss for the period through to Dec 31, 2007 of $ 336,601 The
Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to meet its obligations, to obtain
additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability. These financial statements do
not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Management does not believe that any recently issued but not yet adopted accounting standards will have a
material effect on the Company's results of operations or on the reported amounts of its assets and liabilities
upon adoption.
Common Stock:
On July 12, 2004 the Company purchased all issued and outstanding shares of Cash Now Fransys Inc.,
Cash Now.com LLC and Cash Now USA.com LLC . In May 2005 the Company sold Cash Now USA.Com
Inc and Cash Now Fransys and purchased Cash Now Capital Inc. Cash Now Systems Inc. and Cash Now
Developments. As of December 31, 2007 the company has 13,825,256,000 shares of common stock issued
and outstanding.
The Company provides for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards NO. 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS No. 109 requires the use of an asset and liability approach in
accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences
between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these
differences are expected to reverse.
SFAS No. 109 requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight
of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
